Book Proposal Submission Form

Thank you for your interest in publishing with Duke University Press. Complete this form to submit your book proposal for consideration. Note that the form cannot be saved for later completion. Please complete and submit in the same session. We ask that you only submit your proposal to one editor. If your proposal is more appropriate for another member of our editorial team, we will make sure it arrives to them.


We will attempt to respond to submissions within eight weeks. However, due to the volume of materials we receive, it can occasionally take longer. If you have not heard from us within three months, feel free to follow up via email.
